13 Anime You Should Definitely Watch Before You Die- Part I

0Shares

This is a list containing anime that you should watch before you die. If one of your favorite shonen or mediocre series are not on here, please shut up and watch the things on the list before complaining.

13) Katanagatari

The first on this list, is one of the most underrated series ever but everyone who watches it, acknowledges that it is fucking good. I would say the main reason for its turn off would be its art style but in my personal feelings, the animation and art style suit the theme and plot of the show. This show focuses on this girl and dumbass dude going around and collecting the 12 “sacred” swords for the shogunate. It contains good fights, romance scenes and dialogue but has a questionable ending. This show deserves a definite watch.

If you finished this series or have seen this, I would recommend “Spice and Wolf”, which is also another good romance adventure series but since it is not popular enough, it will probably never get a season 3. Both are worth the watch but are underwhelming once you reach the end.

12) Cromartie High School

This anime can only be summed up with 3 letters: “WTF”. There should no reason why you should not watch this series, especially when it contains a gorilla, an alien and Freddie Mercury all within a school setting. This anime is super witty with its jokes and comedy and only for bad-asses.

Recommendations for this show would be:

-”FLCL”-another “WTF” anime

-”Prison School”- more “WTF” comedy anime

– “Devil is a part-timer”- a very good comedy series with good story

11) Cowboy Bebop

No explanation needed. Good music, characters, story and is a classic. This series would be rated way higher but it is a bit out of date and may turn some people off.

Series similar to this would be:

-“Samurai Champloo”- same creator and has samurais with hip hip. What is there not to like?

-“Trigun”- another classic anime that needs no explanation.

10) Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann

“JUST WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?”. A great anime with good characters, story and can only be summed up using the word “BIGGER”. The story revolves around humans who live underground and want to live on the surface but cannot do so because of these beastmen on the surface. The story is an EPIC and only gets BIGGER.

-”Full Metal Panic!”- A good mecha and comedy series with a solid story.

9) Kuroko no Basket

If you like sports or basketball especially watch this fucking show because it is amazing and very enjoyable. The story follows this character named “Kuroko” and “Kagami” and they play basketball. Yeah, but it is amazing.

Recommendations:

-”Ping Pong the Animation”- I personally think this series is better than Kuroko but some people might not watch it because of its artstyle. This series has awesome matches, characters and music and is a masterpiece.

-”Baby Steps”- A great and enjoyable series about a high school kid getting into tennis and wanting to be a pro. Has great matches, characters and is so HYPE but the same infamous studio that ruined “Bleach”, “Naruto”, “Kingdom”, “Tokyo Ghoul” and of many others also does this series. JUST watch this anime despite its shitty studio

-”Hajime no Ippo”- DAT POWA

-”Haikyuu!” and “Yowamushi Pedal”- both are also very good sports anime

8) Death Note

If you have not watch this series yet, what the fuck are you doing?

Similar Shows:

-”Code Geass”- same concept but with Mechs and a WAYYYYYY better ending

-”Death Parade”- made by the same studio and has the same vibe

7) Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

One of the few good shonen series that are done well. This follows the two brothers “Edward” and “Alphonse” and their adventure to get their bodies back after performing a alchemist taboo; to never attempt to revive a human being. This series can be dark and light hearted when necessary and has the ALL TIME BEST CHARACTERS EVER IN ANIME.

Recommendations:

-”Blast of Tempest”- This series is also done by the same studio. Instead of alchemy there is magic and crazy amounts of plot twist. The story follows Shakespeare’s “ The Tempest” but with its own twist. Add good animation, music and plot, you get a good series that can match FMA.

-”Kekkai Sensen”- Another work done by the same studio but this series is very random and and has that vibe from FMA.

-”Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis”- An action adventure series where it follows Favaro the main character, as he attempt to fulfill his contract with a demon he met named Amira. Add good backstory and animation and a FUCKING hype opening, you get a good series.

I can’t cosign this list at all… The only one i can agree on personally is Death note and I would rank Death note up higher. so I sure as hell want to see the rest of the other’s he has listed. The problem with this list so far is it only appeals to shonen and action fans. Another thing I disagree with is the fact that so many people say’s Cowboy Bebop is amazing and always fails to explain as to why it is so great. I’ma need this nigga to have some work from miyazaki in here or I’ma have to fight him.

First of all these are anime series not movies, so Miyazaki will be hard to find up here.

Next to that you are talking about this list being shonen yet Cowboy Bebop falls under the seinen category, (Death Note falls under shonen btw).

The reason why I personally loved Cowboy Bebop:
1- It was greatly written.
This is a very episodic show and puts you in the middle of it’s world. So while you are progressing through the series you are continuing to get adjusted to this world and it’s characters. Especially when the episodes aired relating to the characters made you understand the coming of this world(Spike, Jet and especially Faye for that matter). It is a very unique, original and pleasant way to tell the story of a roaming bounty hunter.
2- The anime features great directed scenes from action sequences to actual philosophical conversations. They got the right timing on the execution on dialogue, action and the animation in general.
3. Last point I’m going to adress will be ofcourse it’s music. If you’ll search for Cowboy Bebop’s soundtrack you’ll find a six hour long soundtrack with a great mix of a lot of Jazz(Tank, Rush, etc.), Blues(Spokey Dokey, Diggin’ My Potato, etc.), Rock( Knock a little harder), classic opera like Ave Maria and even moroccan jazz fusion songs. This causes a very classical and diverse soundtrack

As an ANIME series, it ended prematurely with the manga still being on-going. When a Game, LN, or Manga receives an anime adaptation they don’t have to follow the original story completely, especially when there is not much of one in the first place, but the ending and message should still be there. Since the manga isn’t over, the had to pull something out of their ass to end the anime on their budget. Can’t be a second season because everyone pretty much died. So hopefully there will be a reboot anime AFTER the manga ends. As a whole series it’s pretty good and interesting, but I don’t think it should be something you HAVE to watch.

Best on this list are the most Death Note, Gurren Lagann, and FMA. I’ve seen all of these other than Katanagatari (heard it’s good, as you said) and I’d like to see you finish this list. Urging us to watch them before we die doesn’t necessarily mean you think they’re the best, but it does mean that you think highly of them. So what else you got?

I’d say Jojo too, but they only adapted 3 of the 8 parts. All the parts which were an anime right now were also based off the manga which was from the 80s, so it might seem a little dated, but the animation is still pretty good.

An intriguing discussion is definitely worth comment. I do believe that you should write more about this subject, it might not be a taboo subject but typically people do not discuss such subjects. To the next! All the best!!
